I've wanted to make a TARDIS costume for ages and finally had a good reason (= a theme party) to do it I forgot to take photos at the party itself, but fortunately was able to wear it to two conventions.

The first version was made for the party and worn at the first convention, I combined one of my cage skirts:

I wanted to wear the 2nd version to a lolita meetup, so it had to be slightly less revealing - but I think with a plain black underskirt it looks nice, too =)

For the first one I made a bodice and a skirt - the skirt is made of several fabric and lace scraps and I love how it turned out. The bodice was a quick-and-dirty project and turned out okay...ish.

The next one is another quick and dirty project: the rose skirt was made by gathering and draping the fabric until I liked it. The corset and cage skirt are handmade, but a bit older.

My favorite piece is the polka dots dress because it's so comfortable and plain enough to wear it at work, too.

The last one was so much work, but I'm not really happy with it. I wanted to wear the skirt and corset (made of fabric and lace scraps) with a matching collar and a different top, but in the morning it was raining so hard that I decided to change things a bit. Needless to say the weather turned out great in the afternoon xD

This is the collar:

And because it was so much work: here are a few progress pictures of the scrap outfit. I used this technique

I've wanted to make a Katwise inspired sweater coat for years, but it has always been one of those "one day I might just do this"-projects. After cleaning my closet a few weeks ago I realized that I had quite a lot if sweaters that I never wear, so I decided to finally try it.

As much as I love rainbow colours and long hoods I'd probably never wear a coat like this, so I made a version in black and dark grey and added some lace to it.

I still feel like I have to make a long version with a hood and loads of colours because it's so pretty, but then again... now I have my own version that actually fits my style

Lately I've been cleaning out my closet and selling some of the clothes I hardly ever wear - which was a good opportunity to think about what I actually like to wear ^^At the moment that's mostly frilly skirts, shirts with lace details and lace dresses.So hopefully I'll be making some of these in the next few weeks - and I already started with a shirt and a skirt =)Of course that's another great way of the whole cleaning thing... I'm using some of the fabrics I've been hoarding for months and sometimes years.

Jersey is not my friend, but the shirt turned out pretty cute I think... there are some small mistakes, but I think I can ignore them ^^

... at least I thought I wouldn't do anything with a galaxy print or pattern until I started to paint glass cabochons with nailpolish. Suddenly I had that weird idea to try a galaxy design and I couldn't stop after that.Galaxies everywhere!

Last year in October I promised a friend of mine "something handmade" and she wanted "a raccoon". Since then I've been asking myself what I could do... it was supposed to be a small project. With a raccoon, of course.

I finally had an idea that I liked last week - a brooch with a felt raccoon. I love how it turned out - and she obviously likes it, too ^^

I made this shirt using super soft knit fabric - I started with the idea to make a simple shirt, but somehow it ended up with some lace details, ruffles and puff sleeves xDWhen I wore it to work a few days ago a little girl actually asked if I was a princess <3 I was a bit confused because I combined the shirt with black jeans that day and didn't feel very princessy, but it was still so cute ^^

The puff sleeves look better when it's worn, but there was noone to take a photo of me wearing it =/

And another piece I made for myself: a cute skirt made of grey/black lace. I love the fabric so much, it's grey lace with a black flock print *_*When I tried this skirt on for the first time it looked a bit short, so I added some wide lace to the hem of the lining - it's funny how some sheer lace can make you feel less naked
